Asked if he could say anything about Kam, he said, “Yeah, he’s a nice guy, I guess he was f***ed up. But get off my property!”

Media were in the process of leaving when the man turned violent, grabbing at a camera that was being held by one person at the scene as others urged him to stop.

‘I’m terrified’

Police on Wednesday said they hadn’t found “clear links” between Kam and the Joneses.

One resident in the area said he was “terrified” after the murder. In the days following the killing, he said police were asking for CCTV footage to see if there was “any suspicious activity.”

Sources told Global News that a hatchet was found on the Jones’ front lawn, and that their bodies were hacked up.

People in the community are relieved that there’s been an arrest, but they still don’t know whether the killing was targeted or random.
